Modern etiquette at work: Be sincere, Be Brief, Be Seated


“Etiquette is the fine tuning of education” ― Nadine Daher



The other day I was working late in the office, huh loads of work for one of my onshore client. Being the manager it’s always my responsibility to deliver the work. However by the time I was about to leave I found out that still many of my juniors were there in the office. I just enquired about what they were doing? And guess what? I was perplexed. Most of them were busy with their Facebook profiles. Some of them were playing with their gizmos. 


Here you are, since the day gadgets invaded our workplace the ethics etiquette of work place have changed a lot. Today most of us spend time with these gadgets irrespective of the fact what our duty should be. One of the worst scenarios is the fact that just because of these gizmos people are no longer serious about their work. Someone is typing on his computer at the same time talking to someone else. And the biggest problem arises by this scenario is less productivity. I never advocate that these new mediums are bad but then there is an old adage that too much of anything is always bad. It’s good to use these high end devices to get connected to your loved ones but then you should never forget that the use of these gizmos at times offend your work etiquette. What if just because these you are not able to meet your target and have to spend extra hours at office. 

Come to social media and here you are, may be you are not active in your work but hey check out your Facebook profile and may be you are Warren Buffet of your profile. Therefore it is important that we should understand the use of these gadgets and social media and use them in a proper manner. 


Today 1 out of every 3 people working in the workplace spends more time in using these mediums and doing less with their work. According to Statisticbrain, 37% of the employees check their cell phones in every 30 minutes or less. Around 32% of employees keep texting while working at office. Apart from using cell phones for texting, 37% of the employees visit there social media profiles while they are busy with office stuff.   


Therefore it is very essential that we formulate a policy in order to cut down the overuse of these gadgets at workplace and make sure that the productivity of our work is no hampered. After all it’s the work you do that is going to pay. Imagine if you have no money would you be able to maintain this entire hip hop or better say techno gossip along with your lifestyle, I don’t think so. Therefore the gravity of the situation is to understand what is important to us and how are we going to use our resources. 


Here are some set of rules every employee should follow at workplace:


1. Always be on time
2. Keep your gadgets on vibrate mode
3. Talk politely
4. Don’t pollute the office furniture while taking meal
5. Respect your colleagues
6. Dress formally
7. Bring your manners, when it comes to business meetings

At the end it totally depends on you whether you want to establish your credibility or want to lose it in an instance. It’s your duty to maintain the proper environment at workplace.
